Innerbelt Freeway

An Innerbelt Freeway is a set of freeway facilities arranged in a loop that serves the interior of a major city, primarily as a traffic reliever for downtown commuters. In comparison, an "Outerbelt Freeway" or "Beltway" typically refers to freeway facilities serving the perimeter of a central city and/or its suburbs.

The highway is in the early stages of an extensive rebuild[3] (the Record of Decision was issued on September 18, 2009[4][5]). This rebuild includes replacement of the Innerbelt Bridge along its route by the George V. Voinovich Bridges.
